This is a very clever scam, seeing as though I have accidentally typed exch.cc instead of exch.cx multiple times in the past however the .cc domain has always been invalid.
The cc domain which is now owned by scammers was the real domain of eXch in the past.
eXch moved from the cc domain to cx domain and the cc domain became unavailable until scammers took control of that in December of last year.

That might be why I keep on mistaking cc for cx. I'm sure eXch is making enough to keep a domain renewed. It is a shame they did not at least keep it to prevent something like this from happening.

Unfortunately you're not the first one being scammed by ".cc" .. This phishing copy has been mentioned a few times inside eXch ANN recently and at least one other forum user reported he lost funds on it...

If this domain is not yours : exch dot CC - [SCAM link]
Then im just lost my funds right now  Undecided Rest in peace 0.027 btc

Oh, I just noticed you're talking about exch.cc That domain is not owned by the official eXch service, so it can be considered a phishing site.
The official domains are exch.cx and exch.pw

There was a discussion about it recently and here is confirmation

exch[.]cc is a phishing link and does not belong to eXch anymore, don't be scammed by using it! (By the way can you please edit the links in your message?)

I (as some others regulars of this thread I think) have reported it to the registrar a few times, but they never answered for now..

OP, you should modify the links in your post perhaps.. I mean like rollinsweet did with replacing the “.” with “DOT” or something, so the forum doesn't offer them any free SEO.

I see. Not good.

I will keep the domain as it is, as I think people will search the domain and this thread should rank close to (if not higher than) the scam domain itself.

The fake domain sound very familiar I think from this same scammer: https://ninjastic.space/topic/5527899

You can see a scammer mentioned the domain on that link that has been deleted on this forum saying no belonging to them anymore. But it is an easy catch. I think I reported it in the past but I am unable to see the report.

These are the legit exch links:
https://exch.cx/
https://exch.pw/
https://hszyoqwrcp7cxlxnqmovp6vjvmnwj33g4wviuxqzq47emieaxjaperyd.onion/

Others are fake.

If you scroll down on the exchange, you can see all the legit links there.

That is for exch.cat. Though yes it may be a possibility it is the same persons.

Exch.cc is also with cloudflare. I'm not sure if cloudflare do much about this kind of thing though I'll be sure to report to them.
